Utterly Unforeseen

Was resting under a fruit bush following much Frenetic Activity when a large rabbit appeared and calmly started munching the grass. In spite of My Surprise I gathered Myself and sprang and dispatched it with a carefully placed whack on the back of its neck. Dragged My prize back to the house. Was a Severe Struggle getting through My cat flap as it was So Large and So Heavy and its legs kept jamming part way through, but finally made it and settled down for a meal. (No jelly again at breakfast so I had left it all in the dish in disgust.)

Then something Utterly Unforeseen happened. The rabbit woke up. Glared at Myself with a very basty expression and then kicked Me extremely hard in the ribs and bounded off round the kitchen. As it was a large and powerful rabbit it made Much Noise and Much Mess. Thought about leaving but it was travelling too fast to be certain Myself would escape without being run down so got up on the top of the microwave and waited. When She came in to investigate She screamed. Which brought Him in too. They opened the back door and shooed it out with flapping tea towels and a broom.

Why did Myself receive no sympathy for My bruised ribs?
